Naomi Campbell drank only juice for 10 days before Versace show
Naomi Campbell has revealed her method of getting catwalk ready for her return to Versace after 14 years at Paris Fashion Week.
The supermodel told The Edit, "For ten days prior I just drank juice – carrot, ginger, pineapple – to cleanse."
She commented that it was worth it saying, "I was quite stunned at the reaction – I remember the room being quiet and I thought, 'Oh my god, they don't want me here'.
"It was emotional for me to do the show after 14 years. When I did my fitting in those amazing clothes, it was just overwhelming."
Campbell added that apart from juicing she eats normally, "I'm not extreme about what I eat – I let chocolate and crisps come in at times. You have to allow the little things that make you happy."

Tax refund thieves obtain Social Security numbers from places like death records from hospitals, then insert a name and false income details. According to Tampa police, detailed instructions are passed around among street criminals. It is called "cocaine on a card," as the refunds come on a debit card.
Strangely, it is easy to get away with identity theft and tax return fraud because the IRS does not verify income records through third party channels like employers or financial institutions. Usually by the time the police are alerted to the scam, the culprits are long gone. The Tampa Police Department has been trying to combat the crime, arresting 49 for tax fraud last year and identifying $130 million in fraudulent refunds. But the problem the police face is proving identity theft.
At least half a million people have been the victims of tax fraud since 2008. Even the late Tampa Police Officer David Curtis, who was killed on the job in 2009, had his identity stolen after he died. Although Curtis' widow contacted the IRS, it took years to finally receive the refund she was owed. Clearly, it is futile to hope on the police alone to succeed in eradicating this crime. The IRS has a pivotal role to play in this.
The IRS has to do the basic thing – verify income claims with third party sources. Granted, this may slow the process for filers, but it would hamstring identity thieves who do not have access to W-2 forms and other income information.
Right now, the IRS is in the process of coding the accounts of deceased taxpayers to ensure no refunds are issued in their names. Personal identification numbers have provided 250,000 victims of identity theft with a way to verify that their returns are valid. This PIN system should be expanded to cover all e-tax filers.
Florida Senator Bill Nelson, who chairs the Senate subcommittee on this issue, recently sponsored the Identity Theft and Tax Fraud Prevention Act. Senator Nelson also announced that the IRS will test a new program in Florida to make it easier for local law enforcement to prosecute income tax fraud.

Refund Process in Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes Scam Begins This Week; Michigan Attorney General Granholm Urges Consumers to Respond to Notices.
LANSING, Mich. -- Attorney General Jennifer M. Granholm today announced that Michigan citizens victimized by sweepstakes scams will share a $1.1 million payout to be distributed this fall. Granholm said that important letters notifying consumers of their individual settlement amounts will begin arriving via U.S. mail this week. Consumers must respond to the letters in order to receive settlement checks in the fall. The settlement is part of the Attorney General's lawsuit against sweepstakes giant Publishers Clearing House (Publishers). Granholm, along with 25 other Attorneys General, sued the company in 1999 for misleading customers into believing they had won a prize or that making purchases would increase their chances of winning.Granholm said: "In getting at least some of their hard-earned money back, Michigan consumers are the big winners after all. To make the deal even sweeter, Publishers has pledged that deception and disingenuousness will no longer be part of its business as usual in our state."
Granholm's office will work with a court-appointed administrator to distribute the settlement funds. Michigan consumers entitled to a payment will receive letters from the Attorney General's office in June. Consumers do not need to apply for the refund, but it is important that consumers promptly reply to the letters to ensure accuracy of address information so that checks can be mailed in a timely fashion. Consumers who do not respond to the settlement letters will be removed from the settlement list. Checks will be mailed in October 2002.
The states filed the lawsuit against Publishers in October 1999; and in June 2001, a $34 million national settlement was reached. Currently, 5,718 Michigan consumers are entitled to a portion of Michigan's settlement.
Because Granholm also recovered $127,648 from Publishers to reimburse the state's litigation expenses, the lawsuit has been argued and won at no cost to taxpayers. The administration expenses of mailing notices and processing checks will also be incurred at no cost to Michigan taxpayers.
(All Attorney General news releases may be found at www.ag.state.mi.us .) Frequently Asked Questions: Who is eligible for a partial refund?
Publishers Clearing House has provided Gilardi & Company, the refund administrator, with a list of all customers who spent more than $1,000 in 1997, 1998, 1999, or 2000. The administrator has mailed a notice containing a letter from Attorney General Granholm and a Refund Acceptance Form to each of the persons on this list. The persons identified by the notices are eligible for a partial refund.
How do I request a refund?
Simply sign the Refund Acceptance Form, noting any change in address, and use the business reply envelope provided to mail it to the settlement administrator.
How much money will I receive?
The amount of each refund will depend on how much a customer spent with PCH in the years 1997-2000, and the total volume of refunds requested. Each customer who requests a refund will receive a pro rata share based on the amount they spent out of the total $19,000,000 settlement. Because the amount of requested refunds will likely exceed available monies, only partial refunds can be issued.
Will I be eligible for a refund if I have already received refunds directly from PCH or from the class action settlement?
If you received a notification about the Attorneys General settlement, you can assume you are eligible to request a partial refund. Only Michigan consumers who were determined to be eligible under the Attorneys General settlement were mailed notifications.
Will I have to pay anything to get my refund?
No, claiming your share of the Attorneys General settlement will cost you nothing, not even postage. You merely have to sign and return the Refund Acceptance Form using the business reply envelope with prepaid postage provided to each eligible consumer.
Do I have to return any merchandise to get a refund?
No. You may keep the products you have purchased from PCH.

Presidents Conference to honor Harper
TORONTO (JTA) -- Canada's prime minister is being honored by a leading Jewish umbrella group for his country's support of Israel.The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations will present Stephen Harper with its inaugural International Leadership Award. Canada's Minister of State of Foreign Affairs (Americas) Peter Kent is slated to attend Thursday's reception and ceremony in New York to accept the award on behalf of the prime minister.
The group said it is expressing appreciation for Canada's "courageous stands" on next year's so-called Durban II anti-racism conference, which Ottawa announced earlier this year that it will boycott. It also lauds the nation's "support for Israel and [its] efforts at the U.N. against incitement and ... the delegitimization [of Israel], where they have taken a role in the forefront," said Malcolm Hoenlein, the executive vice-chairman of the conference.
However, a published report said this year marks the first since Harper became prime minister in 2006 that Canada "has not incrementally shifted" its voting in the U.N. toward Israeli positions on many Middle East-related resolutions.

Above all the other speculative causes, the primary reason for Chabad's continued vitality is the Rebbe's army of "Shluchim" (emissaries). An inspired force of more than 3,800 couples comprised of smart, idealistic, young to middle-aged men and women filled with zeal, energy and love of the Jewish people plus a deep-rooted desire to make a difference. They dedicate their lives to founding, developing and maintaining the Chabad outreach centres throughout the world.http://toronto.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20090326/harper_israel_090326/20090326/?hub=TorontoNewHome

The Canadian PressTHORNHILL, Ont — Prime Minister Stephen Harper is urging all Canadians to confront what he calls a "rising tide of anti-Semitism" around the world.
Harper passionately reaffirmed his government's support for the state of Israel in a speech to hundreds of members of the Jewish community in the Toronto suburb of Thornhill.
Harper was interrupted by several standing ovations — at the grand opening ceremony for a community centre.
Harper, who was joined by Conservative MP Peter Kent, who represents the area, urged all Canadians to "confront" anti-Semitism as a "moral evil."
He said the Conservatives have been taking continual leadership on that issue, including when Kent spoke out against recent anti-Semitic incidents on some university campuses.
The speech comes amid the government's refusal to allow British MP George Galloway from entering Canada, apparently because of links to Hamas.
The federal government says Galloway is inadmissible because he engaged in terrorism and was a member of a group that engaged in terrorism.
That charge is apparently based on the fact that Galloway delivered humanitarian goods to war-torn Gaza and gave $45,000 to the Hamas government.
Hamas is a banned terrorist organization in Canada.
Galloway's lawyers are challenging the entry ban and are considering a civil action.

Primary CNS hemangiopericytoma presenting as an intraparenchymal mass--case report and review of literature. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 20036458 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Hemangiopericytomas (HPC) are rare, aggressive tumours that mostly involve the musculoskeletal system. They account for less than 1% of intracranial tumours. Intracranially, they are predominantly meningeal based and are thought to arise from the spindle cells (pericytes) in the vicinity of the blood vessels. We present a case of a 69-year-old male with a hemangiopericytoma in the left perisylvian region which was subcortically located. This is an uncommon location. We discuss the case and review the literature. |

Trial Strategy: AV 14 in 6th Edition | Building The Case: GiantKiller's Imperial Guard w/ Dark Angels allies at 1850 |
Issue: If a Necron Night Scythe suffers a "Wrecked" or "Explodes" result, do the embarked models suffer S10 hits from the Crash and Burn rule?
Holding: No, models embarked on a destroyed Necron Night Scythe are placed into reserve without suffering any further ill effects.
Justicar GiantKiller delivers the opinion of the court.
This issue arises from the unique special rules of the Necron Night Scythe transport, which tell us that a destroyed Night Scythe's passengers do not disembark as normal, but are placed in reserve instead. See Codex: Necrons p. 51 The question arises, then, as to whether or not models embarked on a Night Scythe (which can only zoom due to being Supersonic) suffer S10 armor-ignoring hits as indicated in the Crash and Burn Rule (BGB p. 81) when the Night Scythe is wrecked or explodes. We've received quite a few emails on this subject since 6th edition was released. We've read a number of arguments on both sides of the issue and have been arguing it amongst ourselves for some time now. We were hoping this issue would be addressed in the 6th Edition Necron FAQ, but it wasn't, so we've set about constructing our opinion.
As always, we begin our analysis with a thorough reading of the relevant rules.
The Night Scythe's rule tells us:
"If the Night Scythe is destroyed, the embarked unit is not allowed to disembark, but instead enters reserve (when they arrive, they cannot Deep Strike)" Codex: Necrons p. 51
In 6th Edition, the Night Scythe is both a flyer and a transport, and it cannot hover, so we look to the Crash and Burn rule for flyers to find out what happens to passengers when a flying transport is destroyed while zooming:
"If a Zooming Flyer is Wrecked or Explodes, its flaming debris rains down on the battlefield. Centre the large blast marker over the Flyer – it then scatters 2D6″. Any model under the blast marker's final position suffers a Strength 6, AP – hit. The Flyer is then taken off the board. If the Flyer is also a Transport, any models within suffer a Strength 10 hit with no armour saves allowed. Survivors are placed anywhere within 3″ of the blast marker's final position and in unit coherency. Any models that cannot be placed are removed as casualties." 6th Edition BGB p. 81
So to use some complex legal jargon, it's ouch time for the passengers of a crashing zooming flyer. Breaking this down into an order of operations, the Crash and Burn rule instructs us to:
1. Scatter the blast and resolve hits against models it touches.
2. Remove the Flyer.
3. Resolve what we'll call 'Crash and Burn Hits' against embarked models.
4. Place survivors.
5. Remove as casualties any models that can't be placed.
We note that the rule does not use the terms "Destroyed" or "Disembark". Some have argued that since the Crash and Burn rule never uses these terms, as referenced in the Night Scythe's rule, that the Night Scythe's rule no longer applies in 6th edition. We find this argument unpersuasive as it is in clear violation of the Superfluous Language Canon and the Use Context Canon. Not only would such an interpretation render the language of the Night Scythe's rule ineffectual, but it would completely ignore the appropriate context. Interpreting the Night Scythe's rule in light of 6th edition and the Crash and Burn rule in particular, it is clear that it is describing rules for passengers getting out of a broken flyer. This is precisely the situation contemplated by the Crash and Burn rule. We would have a hard time arguing with a straight face that a wrecked or exploded Night Scythe wasn't destroyed, and that its passengers aren't attempting to disembark.
Some have argued that pursuant to the Necrons' fluff, the models embarked on a Night Scythe are not actually "on" the Night Scythe, but are instead lying in wait somewhere else to be transported into the battle via Invasion Beams. They would therefore be immune to the effects of being aboard a crashing flyer because they weren't on board when it crashed. We find this argument entirely unpersuasive as fluff has no bearing whatsoever on the interpretation of the rules as written. We note that other rules also refer to Necron passengers on a Necron Night Scythe as embarked models, just like they would for any other race's passengers. (See "invasion beams" Necron FAQ, 6th Edition, v1.1 p.2). Transported Necrons are indeed embarked models and they therefore follow the rules for embarked models, regardless of their fluff. Simply put, fluff isn't rules.
Our reading of the rules thus far suggests that the Night Scythe's rule does apply in the situation where a Night Scythe is wrecked or exploded, and that it conflicts with the Crash and Burn rule. Crash and burn tells us to resolve hits, place the surviving models on the board, then remove any that can't be placed as casualties. The Night Scythe's rule, on the other hand, forbids us from placing the models on the board, instructing us to place the entire unit into reserve instead.
Since these two rules are certainly in conflict, we turn to the "Basic versus Advanced" rule for guidance on how to resolve the conflict:
"On rare occasions, a conflict will arise between a rule in this rulebook, and one printed in a codex. Where this occurs, the rule printed in the codex always takes precedence." 6th Edition BGB p. 7
This is GW's way of articulating the Specific > General canon, which has been a mainstay of 40k rules interpretation since, well, forever. So where these rules conflict, the Night Scythe's rule wins out.
But where do they conflict? It is important to note that the more specific rule overrides only the portion of the general rule it contradicts. We may take out only as much as is necessary to resolve the conflict. It has been argued, therefore, that the Night Scythe rule only overrides #4 from our order of operations above – the "place survivors" portion. By that interpretation, the unit would still suffer the 'Crash and Burn hits' at step #3, then be placed into reserve on step #4 pursuant to the Night Scythe rule.
However, such a narrow interpretation would create further conflict with #5 from our order of operations – remove models which cannot be placed. The last sentence of the Crash and Burn rule tells us "Any models that cannot be placed are removed as casualties." If the unit is placed into reserve, none of the models, even the surviving ones, can be placed according to the Night Scythe's rule. Therefore, the entire unit would be destroyed every time. That's clearly not the drafters' intent, and it would render the Night Scythe rule pointless, so we'd have to ignore that last sentence of Crash and Burn, too. But we ultimately find even that interpretation to be too narrow in light of the language of the rule itself, and in light of context.
The language of the Night Scythe's rule provides us with some guidance as to where to start 'cutting' language. The language of that rule "if the Night Scythe is destroyed" tells us it is triggered upon the destruction of the Night Scythe itself. We concede that the Crash and Burn rule does not use the word "destroyed", but as we've suggested before, it is clear to us that once the Night Scythe is removed from play, it's destroyed. That removal from play occurs at step #2 in our order of operations above – remove the flyer. This strongly suggests that it is immediately after #2 where the Night Scythe's own special rule 'takes over' and dictates the rest of the order of operations, which would mean the unit is simply placed into reserve without suffering any further ill effects. But simple use of context provides a stronger argument still.
Again analyzing the language of the rules in light of context as mandated by the Use Context Canon, there is a compelling argument to be made that the Night Scythe's go into reserves rule replaces the entirety of what we'll call the 'getting out process' for Necron models embarked on a destroyed Night Scythe. This getting out process is the sequence of rules we follow to decide what happens to a unit inside a newly destroyed transport. While the specifics of each getting out process depend on the type of transport and the manner of its destruction, there are key similarities throughout. Reading the Crash and Burn rule in light of the context provided by the "Effect of damage on passengers" rules on BGB p. 80 (the most similar rules to Crash and Burn), we conclude that resolving hits against embarked models is simply a part of the getting out process when a transport vehicle is well and truly destroyed. The getting out process includes resolving hits against embarked models, placing the models, and removing the models which cannot be placed. The Night Scythe's rule therefore overrides all of those portions of the Crash and Burn rule. We find this argument the most persuasive.
With that portion of the Crash and Burn rule thus overridden by the Night Scythe's rule, our inquiry is resolved. Models embarked aboard a Zooming Night Scythe which is destroyed do not suffer 'Crash and Burn hits', are not placed on the board, and are not removed if they cannot be placed. The unit is simply placed into reserve.
So holds the court.

Neil Gilstrap says:
As logical a conclusion as any. :)
I find a simple approach to this issue (and many others to be)
Step #1) First prove that it is NOT clear RaW that any assertion is correct. (This is very easy to do with this issue as you pointed out, noting that the Necron's Night Scythe rules demonstrate no discernible "time" element, an element which MUST be assumed in order for the S10 AP 1 hits to be argued as applicable.)
Step #2) Once it is proven that the rules prove nothing, let context (ochom's razor) make the final decision.
What I would suggest though is that you add another Canon which you are missing. Although you state that "Fluff does not make a rules argument", there should be some principle against making an argument whilst willfully ignoring the obvious, no? :)
I agree that "willfully ignoring the obvious" is a terrible idea when interpreting rules. Put another way, it is incredibly important to use your common sense when interpreting rules language. But I don't think we're missing a canon here. Common sense is a concept that is already reflected in several of our canons.
Check out:
The Use Context Canon
The Drafters Intent Canon
The Occam's Razor Canon
The Absurdidty and Injustice Canon…and note the actual Supreme Court language we used to derive these rules – it's quoted on those pages. I think you'll find all of those canons of interpretation mandate the use of common sense in rules interpretation.
Hope this helps!
Neil Gilstrap says:
Awesome. What you should have said is "why don't you read all of our Canons first, dumbass?" lolz :) The Absurdity and Injustice Canon covers the point very clearly. :)
Dan says:
Your argument doesn't take into account the scope of "Effects of damage on passengers", despite referencing it. Any vehicle that suffers a "stunned" or "shaken" result is unable to fire weapons. This is passed on to embarked units being unable to fire weapons, and units which disembark are still unable to fire weapons. This proves that units CAN be affected by damage to the transport vehicle, even while being transported.
This would imply, then, that the only part involved in the "getting out process" as you put it would be the actual placing of models on the table after determining where you are allowed to place them. Since this happens after the Crash and Burn rule would cause damage to the embarked unit, they still suffer damage as normal despite the replacement to the "getting out process".
Thanks for your argument, Dan!
I agree with you that passengers can be affected by damage to a vehicle. Not every unpleasant thing that can happen to a passenger is part of the "getting out process" we're dicussing.
The crash and burn wounds at issue here are part of that process.
The inability to fire as a result of a shaken vehicle isn't.
See the difference?
Dan says:
I don't think there IS a difference, to be honest.
"Effects of damage on passengers" passes along an effect (unable to shoot) to the embarked units, whether they disembark or not. Where the unit is, or ends up, is irrelevant. The same process is involved in the "Crash and burn" mechanic.
Where the models finally end up, either on the table (disembarked) or in reserve (Night Scythe rules replacing "disembarking") is irrelevant to them being exposed to the effects of the vehicle suffering a Crash and burn result first.
Your initial assessment of the process involved is correct, but your evaluation afterwards is suspect.
1. Scatter the blast and resolve hits against models it touches.
No arguments here.2. Remove the Flyer.
No arguments here.3. Resolve what we'll call 'Crash and Burn Hits' against embarked models.
Happens as instructed.4. Place survivors.
Place survivors into reserve, instead of on the table, as per Night Scythe rules.Remove as casualties any models that can't be placed.
Luckily, all survivors are already "placed" into reserve, so they are safe from this clause in this instance.The Night Scythe rule, currently, only changes "disembarking", not anything or everything that happens before they attempt to actually leave the vehicle.
Your own "superfluous language canon" tells you not to ignore parts or a rule in the application of other parts of the same rule, and as I have demonstrated here, every part of both rules is applied equally.
Dan, while your argument is well taken, I disagree.
Resolving the crash and burn hits, placing survivors, and killinng off any that can't be placed are all part of the getting out process which is overruled by the night scythe's rule.
Your argument that some damage effects affect passengers without forcing them to disembark does not support the conclusion that all effects on passengers must be separate from the getting out process.
This ruling doesn't violate the superfluous language canon, as no language is being rendered superfluous. Being overridden in this instance by the night scythe's rule does not make any of the crash and burn rule superfluous. You may have a stronger argument based on the read rules together canon. But we've considered that and nevertheless came to the decision posted here.
Also, i'd argue that entering reserve does not count as being placed so as to avoid destruction by the last line of crash and burn there.
Charlotte says:
I would have to agree with Dan, Being placed in reserve would count as being place, thus leaving them damaged but able to enter reserve by any other available means.
The Necrons are placed in step 4, and since no models cannot be placed are not effected by step 5. I feel the main confusion is in steps 2-3 which really step 3 happens at the same time as step 2.
Charlotte says:
Well, looks like my post was badly timed. They officially follow this ruling now….
@Charlotte, just because they faq'ed it doesn't mean it wasn't worth arguing about. This is all about the fun to be had in detail-oriented dissection of awkwardly-written rules.
My issue with your argument is that I don't agree with your assertion that being placed in reserve counting as being placed in the context it's being used in the rule.
In case anyone's wondering, the FAQ ruling Charlotte's talking about is this one, which addresses the issue in this article:
"Q: If a unit is embarked on a Night Scythe that is Wrecked or Explodes, do they suffer Strength 10 hits with no armour saves as per the Crash and Burn rules before they are placed in reserve? (p81)
A: No."

Technical Proceedings of the 2002 International Conference on Modeling and Simulation of Microsystems
Chapter 11: Semiconductor Device Modeling | |
Study of Electron Transport in SOI MOSFETs using Monte Carlo Technique with Full-Band Modeling | |
Authors: | H. Takeda, N. Mori and C. Hamaguchi |
Affilation: | Osaka University, JP |
Pages: | 596 - 599 |
Keywords: | SOI MOSFET, pseudo-potential method, Monte Carlo simulation, non-parabolicity |
Abstract: | In SOI MOSFETs, electrons are quantized into two-dimensional electron gas by the strong electric field normal to the interface. When the Si-layer thickness is thinner than the inversion layer width, the confinement becomes stronger and effects of the non-parabolicity of the Si band structure will significantly influence the two-dimensional electronic states. We studied effects of the non-parabolicity on the electronic states in SOI MOS-FETs with such an ultra-thin Si-layer by using an empirical pseudo-potential method and analyzed the electron transport properties by performing single-electron Monte Carlo simulations. |

how do i make prosthetic finger tips so i can play my guitar again?
When I was a baby, the tip of the middle finger on my left hand was caught in a door and severed. The result was a slightly shortened finger with a nail that wrapped around the fingertip. I retired about 5 years ago and wanted to learn the guitar. I was unable to play because of the fingertip. I searched all over the internet hoping to find a solution. I came across Galaxy Guitar and the original FT-1. I ordered it and was able to start learning to play. I have used the cap for the past 4 years. Since the protector was only one size, I would have to insert white medical tape inside the FT-1 to make it fit my finger. I also used double back Scotch tape to keep it from coming off while playing. I recently noticed that a new FT-1 flex has come out as well as customized versions. Since my old cap was wearing out it was time to order a new one. After several conversations with Randy and Kevin at Galaxy Guitars, I decided to go with a custom FT-1. The custom FT-1 comes with Micro strips inserted on the inside. What a great idea this was because now the fit is perfect. The protector stays on firmly with no need for tape. I also wanted the leather cover to cover just beyond the tip of my finger. I was able to specify that. I am so pleased with the result. I am also thankful that Randy spent so much time on the phone with me to discuss all of my options and to fabricate the custom protector. Sure, it is a little more money for the custom protector, but to me it was well worth the cost. I am so happy to be able to play and am enjoying my journey of learning this wonderful instrument so much.
I want to thank all on this blog, especially "Texas Starr" for turning me onto Galaxy Guitar Products, leading me to the correct solution for my finger tip amputations. I ordered 2 Galaxy Ft-1 finger prosthetics after discovering them on this forum. I am truly grateful to be able to play my bass guitar after not playing for over a year from losing 2 tips of my fingers. I truly wish you all find a solution as I have for your finger challenges and want to give thanks here. If not for this forum I am not sure I would of been able to play my bass guitar ever again let alone be looking forward now to purchasing a new one.
I have my first finger fused accuse of arthritis so it doesn't bend to make chords. Is there anything I can put on it to get a bending motion in order to play.
Tony Iommi says in an interview that he did try learning to play the guitar with the other hand, but abandoned it, thinking that he'd been playing for very long already (about 3 years by then). He sums that up by saying that if he knew then what he knows now, he'd have re-learnt to play the guitar with the other hand; according to him in the long run it would have been much better than the use of prosthetic finger tips.
My thoughts are with everyone who's got this issue. Might be easy to say, but: Don't give up!
Are you still making finger tips; like you I lost about 1/2 inch on my index finger on my left hand. I played in a band for many years when I was young and can't play the bar chords that well anymore.
I lost part of my index finger on my fret hand. If this really works please email instructions on how to make it firstname.lastname@example.com
Hey, just a heads up.... I checked Galaxy's website, they now offer the FT-1 in a larger size. I still use their 5/8's, if your finger is larger you may want to check out their larger offering. Best of luck.
My name is Ron & i will do my best to help you. I don't charge but shipping costs would be appreciated because i suspect ur from the UK. & i am in Canada. Thanx Ron.
You might not like this answer, but it'll definately have you playing chords again though it might take a few years, if you're a righty, switch over to lefty and learn over again, do it the iommi way,
iommi already played lefty. thats why he made finger tips out of fairy liquid bottles because he couldnt switch to right handed playing. now i lost the tip of my middle finger fretting hand, i used some of that morphplast, plastic pellets you melt in hot water, not hot enough to burn your finger, so you can form it over your digit, let it run under cold water"quicker" then superglue a leather pad on the tip. if you have quite a bit missing from your finger you can build it up with wax then form the tip over that worked for me.
The best company I found is Galaxy Guitar Products, Google them. I have been using their FT-1 Finger Protectors now for a few years. My last 2 were an investment of $110.00 each. I still have my first one. If you play any instrument and have a severe finger injury as I do, let the pro's make you one. It's your finger & worth the investment. Here is a link if needed. http://galaxyguitar.com I Hope this helps you & good luck.
Hi There, send pics & measurements to email@example.com. I make extensions using various dentistry materials. Made 1 for myself & other people.
I lost my finger tip with the help of my lawn mower....sigh....believe it or not, the best success I've had has been with PLASTI DIP tool dip. By shaping a piece of wooden dowell then inserting it into a disposable rubber glove then dipping it 2 or 3 times, let it dry and trim.
before that I hadn't touched my guitars for 6 years........takes some getting used to but better than never playing at all
This thread has been unbelievably informative, but before I go out and try stuff for myself-- has anyone been successful using any of these methods/would be willing to give more detailed instructions? I haven't lost any fingers or pieces thereof, but I have extremely sensitive skin that doesn't form calluses or scar properly, so all attempts to learn guitar up to the present have failed epically. But as I prepare to go off to college, I'm facing the fact that I can't take my piano with me, and would love to have the more portable option of guitar.
I am currently trying to learn how to play the guitar but it's extremely hard for just about the same reason I'm 15 and a couple years back was in a car accident and lost about a centimeter or so of my middle finger I would like to make the prosthetic finger tip myself though but don't know what to use to make it ..... PLEASE HELP me as well !
Im having my first knuckle amputated on my left index finger on tuesday. I've been going over design options in my head as to what would work best. Im thinking something rigid I could slip over the next portion of my finger , with a slight bend to help with chords structure. Im not sure how that would affect bar chords. Did you ever find a way that works for you? THanks
1.purchase a bag of algenon
2. mix it up in a plastic cup
3. stick your finger in and let it get hard
4. pour in some plaster to make a cast of the finger
5. remove the algenon after it gets hard
6. drill a small hole in the base of the plaster finger
7. put a stick through it and attach it to a base so you can work on it
8. buy one of those rubber finger guards at staples that are used to count money
9. buy one of those foam numbers or letters at a craft store
10. sand and mold the foam to replace the size and dimension of the finger loss
11. glue it inside the rubber finger guard
12 trim the rubber finger guard to a comfortable size and put it on the mold
13. buy some deer skin leather..thinner the better..sand it down to make I thin
14. crazy glue the deer skin leather to the rubber finger guard while on the mold ( must use crazy glue so it will take the shape
it will fit your finger perfectly and stay on. The foam will allow you to feel the string of the guitar. It will be the tightest fit, never fall off and take the smallest amount or area between strings.
It is the only product that works for me. I currently am on my 4th Galaxy FT-1 Finger Prosthetic. I still have the 1st one from years ago but wanted to have spares. Once your brain gets use to having it on, it becomes second nature. Hope this help you & good luck.
The stories I am reading here have offered me courage and hope that there might be some affordable options for a prosthetic. Playing cello requires the thumb of the left hand to exert a good amount of pressure straight down on the tip as well as to slide along the strings at the side of the thumb, and both of those now are very painful not to mention the lack of appropriate length. But perhaps the leather thimble idea would be a place to start. Right now any extra money has to go to the kids, not unnecessary things like hobbies, but this has given me the courage to start trying and to make a plan so that eventually I can play again. Thank you to all for the creative ideas and support.
As a BK (Below Knee) leg amp there is a "technique" that prosthetics guys use to shape the end of the limb to ensure it will fit a prosthetic properly. This was done for me starting at about 4 weeks post op (non trauma caused amputation). Now depending on the shape you have on the "left over" portion of the finger this might or might not help so please consider that before hand.
What they do is apply a SHRINKER. In a leg case this is a semi stretchy "tube sock" with a small plastic rigid "O" ring threaded on. The way this is used is to have the whole thing layed out flat; roll the end that has a somewhat tighter knit "hem" on it like a condom and then roll THAT end over the limb end and THEN bring the OTHER end of the sock--the section that is CLOSEST to the ring--over the already on part. Try this it is much easier to DO it than EXPLAIN it! Just take a tube of some sort (cut an old sock) and use any sort of a ring to make a "Model" and try it over a solid tube.
Now the OBJECT in "shrinking" an amputation stump is to get it SHAPED to a narrower end than the rest of the limb. This way you can fit the socket part better and not have to make a cylinder of it; it will taper. Which I suspect is what you gittar men are looking for!
You could probably look around at fabric stores or hobby places for a semi stretchy material to duplicate this. And I am assured that even after TIME these can be of MUCH help in re-shaping limbs so this might be able to help older damages. You DO have to USE it tho--use it when you go to bed is the advice of my "Leg Guy".
Making one small enough --altho you could use anything that would compress into that tapered shape ---would be the challenge.
just read this post after a bit of surfing the web and thought I'd drop a note in for anyone looking for help in this area.
I am in the UK and work for the NHS and have a few patients who have come to me looking for help in this area already.
I work as a Consultant Maxillofacial Prosthetist, known in the USA and Europe as an Anaplastologist.
We make finger prostheses for traumatic and congenital defects and I have seen professional musicians and amatures alike and can confirm that in the UK you should be able to be seen for free.
Sorry for the USA you will have to ask and see what different clinics would charge.
How to be seen is to go to your GP and ask for a referral to a local clinic, in the UK, see here for your nearest - http://www.impt.co.uk/clinics.php.
USA and Europe - http://www.anaplastology.org/
From my experience to-date I have made aesthetic fingers to restore the look of the missing digit, but a more custom thinner curved prosthesis suitable for purpose seems to actually 'work' better.
Hope this helps , take care.
2. peal off
3. fill wax molds with BOG.
4. peal wax off BOG and coat BOG in sillicon glue.
5.peal silicon off and your done.
I had the same type of injury- and made my own tips!
I can make them for you also.
Yes, I had the same type of problem, with my chord hand ring finger- her is THE answer, I made my own and a website to health others.
The link
keep the faith
PS for Kev. Find a good hand reconstruction surgeon, not many around but they can do amazing things with pins and skin transplants that may give you partial use of that finger.
Have a look at this product http://www.galaxyguitar.com/ click on 'FT1 Finger protector' tab. It could well be the answer for you. Not sure if it would help me as my finger is shortened to below the knuckle, but for yours it may well be helpful. I'd be interested to hear what you think.
I have spoken to the London prosthetic centre and they can make a finger designed for playing guitar. Either a lifelike one or a cheaper 'functional' one. Not sure what it'll look like but I will keep you informed. I am gigging again and managing ok, but some chords are a bit out of reach lol
Also, here is a video I also found.
Then again, since the comments start in August of 09' I am assuming you have had some developments since then.
That really sucks! I feel so bad! I know how it would feel consittering i either play guitar or come here in my free time... (I have a lot)
You could play bass, or learn to sing....
Good luck.......
I really understand the frustration that you are feeling. I n 1984 I had a lid to a machine I was operating fall and it severed my left index finger at the first joint , the left middle finger in between the 1st and 2nd joint. and the left ring finger was only being held on by the skin on the inside of my hand. All of the fingers were repaired (somehow) and I was able retain all of my fingers. Although they were not the same fingers I had before the incident, I have been able to play my guitar. As a matter of fact< I think that if I had not continued attempting to play after ther acident, I would not have advanced as far as I have.
Your tips will be senitive from now on. Try to put a product called " new skin "on them after they heal, it might help. Just don't stop. My left hand would be useless if I had not continued to try to use it after the acident. After 1 year of my acident, I joined The United Staes Marine Corps, and I haven't stoped working since then.
Good Luck
The issue is lost limb at any point is traumatic. No one understands it as much as you. I receintly lost my middle finger at the "C" joint. Being a 40 year guitarist / performer , money loss, lengthy rehab and job uncertanty brings on a range of emotions.
Find a prosthisis person that is interested in you and your needs. iIm in Chicago and there is a ton of people here. Keep up the search.
Also remeber there are great strides in transplants. Believe it or not toe's to hands.
Tony Iommi
In an industrial accident at the age of 17 on his last day of work in a sheet metal factory, he lost the tips of the middle and ring finger of his right hand. Iommi considered abandoning music, but his boss (who knew of Iommi's "night job" as a pub band guitar player) encouraged him to reconsider by playing a record by jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, who earned wide acclaim despite limited use of his fretting hand following an injury.
After attempting to learn to play right-handed, Iommi strung his guitars with extra-light strings (using banjo strings, which were a lighter gauge than even the lightest guitar-strings of the time) and wore plastic covers over the two damaged fingers. He fashioned the latter himself, by melting plastic liquid-soap bottles into a ball and then using a soldering iron to make holes into this ball, putting his fingers in while the plastic was still soft enough to be shaped. He then trimmed and sanded away the excess plastic to leave himself with two thimbles, which he then covered with leather, to provide better grip on the strings. Subsequent tips have been custom-made.
I like the idea raised by the dental tech below...I might have to explore that.
hope this helps!

[ Dining Index | Silicon Valley | Metroactive Home | Archives ]
By Sarah Quelland
JUST BEHIND Bradley Video, nestled between a tanning salon and a self-service dog wash, sits Jalisco. This unassuming Mexican restaurant has become a family institution--and not just for the three generations of the Morado family who own and operate the place. Multiple generations of South Bay families have become loyal diners over the years, faithfully returning week after week for Jalisco's generous and delicious meals. Established in 1956, this family-style Mexican restaurant has seen many locations over the years; sometimes two restaurants were open at once. It started out at 31st and Santa Clara as a drive-in with car-hop service. Then it moved to West San Carlos, spent a decade on Stevens Creek Boulevard, and has been happily serving customers in Campbell since 1992. Many regulars have been dining at one Jalisco or the other since it opened almost 50 years ago. Thankfully, the menu hasn't changed much. Jalisco isn't a fancy place, but it's comfortable. Known for its carne asada, which owner Henry Morado says his father first started in the South Bay in 1967, Jalisco has a reputation for good, affordable food and friendly service. Tasty authentic Mexican food with hearty helpings of sour cream and fresh guacamole are standard at this restaurant and the help-yourself chips-and-salsa bar is addictive.

RESCUING AMANDA HONEY JANS ISBN: 9781603136327/ 9781603136518 October 2009 Whiskey Creek Press Torrid www.whiskeycreekpresstorrid.com eBook $5.99 160 Pages Erotic Romance Rating: 3 Cups
Donovan Steel is working undercover at his cousin's BDSM club to catch a murderer.
Amanda Powel is a reporter who has gone undercover to sniff out the story of the serial killer.
Donovan notices the blond bombshell right away because she spells trouble from clear across the room. When Amanda sees the intense stranger stalking towards her, the emotional pull and erotic needs gives her contradictory feelings. Will he find her just as attractive when he sees she is not some gorgeous submissive, but a "plain Jane" in disguise? As the FBI gets closer to discovering who is murdering women, the killer strikes someone close to Donovan, making his hunt for the slayer all the more personal.
Rescuing Amanda was a good book. I like how both Donovan and Amanda have past relationships that hurt them, giving them an air of vulnerability toward each other. I also like how feisty she was toward him and his domineering ways. Honey Jans definitely knows how to write some very steamy sex scenes.
Caution: This tale contains scenes of spanking, BDSM, anal play, anal sex, sex toys, and implied voyeurism.

Best Lewis Structure
The Lewis structure that is closest to your structure is determined.
The hybridization of the atoms in this idealized Lewis structure
is given in the table below.
Hybridization in the Best Lewis Structure
__has 16.01% B 1 character in a p-pi orbital ( 98.90% p 1.09% d)
__has 83.99% O 2 character in a p3 hybrid
__has 16.01% B 1 character in a p-pi orbital ( 98.91% p 1.09% d)
__has 83.99% O 2 character in a p-pi orbital ( 99.83% p 0.17% d)
__has 21.76% B 1 character in a sp1.31 hybrid
__has 78.24% O 2 character in a sp0.86 hybrid
__has 44.77% B 1 character in a sp0.75 hybrid
__has 55.23% H 3 character in a s orbital
__made from a sp1.14 hybrid
Donor Acceptor Interactions in the Best Lewis Structure
The localized orbitals in your best Lewis structure
can interact strongly. A filled bonding or lone pair orbital can
act as a donor and an empty or filled bonding, antibonding, or
lone pair orbital can act as an acceptor. These
interactions can strengthen and weaken bonds. For example, a
lone pair donor->antibonding acceptor orbital interaction
will weaken the bond
associated with the antibonding orbital. Conversly, an interaction
with a bonding pair as the acceptor will strengthen the bond.
Strong electron delocalization in your best Lewis structure will
also show up as donor-acceptor interactions.
Interactions greater than 20 kJ/mol for bonding and lone pair
orbitals are listed below.
Molecular Orbital Energies
The orbital energies are given in eV, where 1 eV=96.49 kJ/mol.
Orbitals with very low energy are core 1s orbitals.
More antibonding orbitals than you might expect are sometimes
listed, because d orbitals are always included for heavy
atoms and p orbitals are included for H atoms.
Up spins are shown with a ^ and down spins are shown as v.

Total Electronic Energy
The total electronic energy is a very large number, so by convention
the units are given in atomic units, that is Hartrees (H). One
Hartree is 2625.5 kJ/mol. The energy reference is for totally
dissociated atoms. In other words, the reference state is a gas
consisting of nuclei and electrons all at infinite distance from
each other. The electronic energy includes all electric
interactions and the kinetic energy of the electrons. This energy
does not include translation, rotation, or vibration of the
the molecule.
